Default Tire Pressure reset

I was checking my tire pressure and noticed my LF had to much air in it. I was letting air out of it and then my low tire pressure warning light went on for my RR tire. Anyone know how to reset the TPMS so it displays the correct tire on my dash? The tire place couldn’t figure it out. I have a 2007 base model and the options button show options unavailable. The holding down of both lock and unlock didn’t work either.

Unless the TPM is failing, it should give you an accurate reading within a couple of minutes ( depending on MY). There is no "reset" option (other than which wheel is which).

My first thought is that the TPM is giving it's first gasp (before it's last).

If these are the original sensors, then it's a wonder it didn't happen before now.

I agree. Use the TPMS Reprogram tool to reset your sensors.
I use the EL-50448 reprogram tool.
The steps are easy as per this you tube video
